I’m going to Camden for a night of fun
Interesting poems people & rum
This spot of the planet’s not like the rest
Pink & blue hair maybe green’s the best.
The people here like to be pierced & inked
There’s a strong smell of gange & the toilets stinked
The whole wide universe is represented here
The happy the neutral & those shedding a tear.
The canals close by & of course Regents Park
People light up come out of the dark
Kentish Town’s right here with Primrose Hill close by
Do you love your neighbor are you prepared to give it a try?
There’s people here from near & far
Who knows who you’ll meet at the bar
People in great places celebrating with joy
Everything’s temporary said the wise old man to the little boy.
Be aware of where you focus your energy & attention
& try to choose well I really have to mention
This rhyme was written in my own back yard
Try to make things easier it needn't be so hard.
Take a few breaths & connect with who you are
You’re a lot more precious than even the coolest car
You’re much more than your body thoughts or feelings
The master of your world giving birth to all meanings.
There’s an artistic flare around this town
With an equal balance of smile & frown
Creative people swarming around
Still punks on the street requesting a pound.
Talking to an audience brings a little responsibility
You need to hear more about your potential mobility
You’re free to think, feel & do as you wish
Listen to no one said the bird to the fish.
I have no idea how this rhyme will go down
Am I dressed ok should I have worn a gown
Its good our paths are crossing here tonight
For your freedom & happiness you'll have to stand & fight.
